Notorious sinners didn’t kill Jesus. Religious people did.

God is not in a hurry to fix us. Our behavior is not his first priority. We are his first priority. Loving us, knowing us, affirming us, protecting us. That is his top goal and his main concern.

Indifference was our greatest enemy.

It’s interesting how people try to redefine God to their liking. They bring him down to their level so they can understand him, then they reject him because he is too much like them.

God's love is so extravagant and so inexplicable that he loved us before we were us. He loved us before we existed. He knew many of us would reject him, hate him, curse him, rebel against him. Yet he chose to love us. God loves us because he is love.

You don’t have to be good to be Jesus’s friend. You just have to be honest.

Sometimes our brains are our own worst enemy because grace isn't logical.
